Why was this game so hated again? It has the best story, mechanics and overall gameplay of the series. It's only inferior in atmosphere to SH3 but superior in everything else (especially the story).

Invincible ghosts, escorting Eileen and backtracking.

>second half of the game is just going back through the first half but it's an escort quest this time
>invincible ghosts and walter
>shitty stock sound effects and trash like burping nurses and ghost wheelchairs
I don't hate the game but it's pretty rough to play, the story and concept are awesome though

>Invincible ghosts
Actually scary enemies in a horror game? What is this madness!
>escorting Eileen
Not a big deal, RE4 has much worse escorting mechanics (read: the game is fucking ruined every time Ashley is around) and it's still praised.
>backtracking
Not a big deal.

>Why was this game so hated again?
By who? 95% of people dislike it more than the previous games, which is to be expected as The Room was never even intended to be a Silent Hill game to begin with, but they don't hate it.

I always hear it was intended and it wasn't which is it.

It was interesting but I can't see myself replaying it. Replaying the same levels all over again halfway through the game with an escort was pretty lame. Also, having burping nurses, monsters that screech like monkeys and dogs that sound like cheetahs was dumb as fuck.

It's the definition of a pleb filter

How the fuck can people listen to this

How the fuck can people care about facts and truth?

It came off of the backs of Silent Hill 2 and 3. If it had done it's own thing with the storyline instead of trying desperately to tap into the idiots who think SH2 is GOAT then it could have been manageable. The gimmick with the first person perspective of the apartment itself was good but the inventory system was freaking awful. Atmospherically I think it's definitely up there in terms of strangeness/weirdness with a bit of creepy thrown in as the music helps a ton too.. but the combat and inventory fuck it all up. It doesn't help that it makes you go through the same fucking stages all over again but with the added bonus of having a literally retarded/handicapped AI following you around that you have to escort to and fro WHILE also being chased by a cliche unstoppable force. All in all 3/5, not terrible but not great. Just OK.

Fuck off, Ross.

it's more annoying than scary, those two things don't go well together

It's not the least bit scary and it seems like the game was designed to be as annoying to play as possible.

Only c.u.CKS hated it. they should have worked more on the protagonist but other than that the ost, the atmosphere, the apartment mechanics, the story and its ties to the rest of the story, the invincible enemies, the zones themselves and the background of the important characters were top notch. the trailer by itself sold this game, let alone the game itself. it is a masterpiece, my fav sh and the only thing that should have been added would have been a romance ending as shit with eileen. the concept was based the apartment and even though it changed unfortunately, a team that was not sh made one of the best sh games out there. this is how you do survival horror.

>can't stack bullets
what the fuck were they thinking

This. The first three SH games are hardly even survival games.

SH4 is my favorite of the series, but
>baktracking is no big deal
you are full of shit

They clearly ran out of time and said: Fuck it, just copy paste the game twice

Same shit with The evil within won't let you have more than 5 matches, its game balance vs common sense

I meant how can people listen to such a faggot ADD voice, I didn't watch the stupid videos you fucking r*dditors

FUCKING ESCORT MISSION THE GAME WOULD BE AMAZING IF IT WAS JUST YOU GOING THROUGH THE LEVELS LIKE THE FIRST HALF.
first person bits were cool and atmospheric
